Author's notes...
Well, I really like the Starlights and I felt like I need them in this fanfic, but I wasn't sure how. I finally came up with a way so here we go ^^
Disclaimer: Much to my dislike I still don't own Sailormoon
It was very late at night, almost midnight in fact. For some reason Usagi felt like she needed to go out and sit in the field by the palace. So, she snuck out of the palace and went in the field. When she got there, she was sure why she was there but she knew something was about to happen that she needed to be there for. So she sat there for about an hour gazed at the stars. Out of boredom she put her hair back in it's classic hair style. She watched the stars a little longer. All of a sudden, three shooting stars raced across the sky, but then they shifted courses and started to head right towards her. They got closer and closer. Usagi shielded her eyes from the blinding light as they made impact with the ground. She closed her eyes and prepared herself for the explosion, but it never came. Three male figures emerged from the dust.
"Smooth landing Yaten," one said.
"Oh shut up Seiya-baka," another snapped back.
"Seiya, Yaten, something doesn't look right," the third said. The dust began to clear and Usagi could now more clearly see them. The first had black hair tied back into a pony tail and deep blue eyes. The second was shorter and had emerald eyes and silver hair done the same way. The third was taller than the other two. He had deep violet eyes and brown hair done the same. They were not dressed in rags like she was but they weren't dressed like royalty either. Instead the all wore brightly colored, casual, suit.
Usagi stared wide-eyed with her mouth hanging open for a moment. As the one with the raven hair looked around he saw her and rushed up to her. "Odango!" he exclaimed. He rushed over to her side and helped her up. The other two followed.
"Nani..." Usagi asked, slightly confused.
"Odango, what happened?" the first one asked.
"Odango?" she asked. "Why do you keep calling me Odango?" she asked. The name was familiar but she had never been called that in her whole life.
"Odango! It's me! Seiya!" he said and began to shake her lightly.
"Seiya...?" she asked. She remembered that. The name Seiya, there was something familiar about it.
"USAGI!!" he said, hoping her real name would cause her to remember something. "Where's Mamoru-san?" he asked.
"Mamoru...?" she repeated. That name was familiar too. "Usagi...? My name is Kodoku, not Usagi."
"What are you talking about Tsukino-san?" the tallest asked.
"That's my name. Kodoku," she stated.
"And what happened to this planet?" the shorter one said and looked around with disgust.
"Nothing happened. It's been like this for as long as I can remember," Usagi said.
"No it hasn't Odango!" Seiya said. "When we visited last time-"
"Which was a reeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaalllllllllyyyyyyyy long time ago!" the shorter one inserted.
"Shut up, Yaten," Seiya said. He turned back to Usagi. "When we visited last time everything was thriving. The people were alive." He shook her a little more. "Why don't you remember?" She shook her head. He exchanged a nervous glance with the other two and began to fumble through his pockets. He pulled out his wallet and took out a photograph. He handed it to her. "Do you recognize any of these people?" he asked.
Usagi stared at the photograph for a few moments. "There's Ami and Minako and Michiru. That's you and there are the other two," she said and pointed to each person as she said their name. "There's me," she said.
"Do you recognize anyone else?" Taiki asked. She shook her head again.
"How about him?" Seiya asked and pointed to a tall man with short black hair. He was standing right behind her and had his hands on her shoulders.
"No," she said.
"You don't recognize Mamoru-san?" Yaten asked. She shook her head and he burst out laughing.
"Be quiet Yaten. This isn't a laughing matter," Taiki said.
"Gomen ne Taiki, but I find it funny that she doesn't recognize him," he said. Suddenly there was a rustle in the tall grass near by. A black cat emerged from the grass and climbed onto a rock. Her crescent moon sparkled in the moonlight.
"Seiya, Taiki, Yaten. You've returned," the cat said.
"Luna!" Yaten said and walked over to the neko and picked her up.
"What happened?" Taiki asked.
"It's a rather long story," Luna said. "It started about five years after you three left. In the year 2000 a new enemy surfaced. Since Mamoru-san has the blessings of Earth when this planet corroded he went with it. When he did he killed Mars, Jupiter, Neptune, Uranus, and Mercury. The only ones who were left were able to hold off the enemy for ten years. Finally everyone except Sailormoon was gone. She fought and died vowing to get her friends back. Since Earth was not destroyed, but it's rightful heir was killed, the enemy took over. I have been awaiting the day when Serenity would be reincarnated ever since."
"You've got to be kidding me," Yaten said.
"It sounds like when Galaxia came to Kinmoku," Taiki said. The other two shuddered at this thought.
"So that's why Usagi doesn't remember us," Seiya said.
"Hai," Luna said. "She in currently a servant in the queen's palace. When she was two she was captured by the queen and there they changed her name to Kodoku. Minako, Ami, and Michiru also are servants in the palace. I haven't been able to located the others yet."
"Odango, do you remember Sailormoon?" he asked. Before Usagi had a chance to answer Luna spoke.
"She doesn't. Until yesterday she hadn't even heard of her, Queen Shi has made sure of it."
"I don't know what going on here, but I don't think I like the way it sounds," Usagi said.
"Odango! YOU'RE Sailormoon!" Seiya said. He held her out at arm length and shook her again. "YOU'RE the only one who can save this planet!"
"Nani?" Usagi asked.
"He's right Usagi," Luna said. "You are Sailormoon. You must gather your allies and fight Queen Shi. You should be ruling this planet with your lover Mamoru and your daughter Chibi-usa."
"I can't be Sailormoon! I just can't! I-" She was cut off as Seiya's hold on her shoulders tightened.
"Odango, you have to. You can do it. You will do it. Trust me," he said.

Hee hee ^^ I like this chapter too! I've really hated my past fanfics. I am Meika Hishikawa and Meika-Still Standing were okay but I really hated some parts. I like this fanfic, but I probably won't write many more dark fanfics like this one. I could also turn this fanfic into a S/U, T/A. and Y/M but I probably won't. Let me know if's you'd like that and if most people would like that I'll try ^^ Jaa
